I'm just playing the odds.
13 players probably means 3 scum.
We can't vote no-lynch but it's essentially a random chance so only 3/13 chance of getting scum.
The Warrior has essentially said that an investigation on him will yield scum.
A Miller could say that. A scum could say that. I call that a 50% chance.
All that said, I would rather that The Warrior be subject to trial by combat rather than lynched.
He might survive and if we have a role cop, he could check whether the Miller claim is valid.
Potentially outing myself on day 1 as scum wouldn’t exactly be a great strategy when I have no way of knowing whether or not a role cop exists.
I’d rather we not allow a townie to go to trial by combat when we could look for an actual scum instead.
